I got my RES From a friend of mine, who only fed her crickets. She hasn't eaten pellets for years, and refuses veggies, even with the Tuna water. (She will take a bite, but not eat it.) What should I do? Thank you!! :mrgreen:

Tough love approach... only offer veggies (use a veggie clip and/or aquatic plants) and pellets. See what happens after 2 or 3 days.
